9. My grandson got this recipe from one of his reading books at school. We left out the nuts and coconut because he doesn't like them but he really liked this snack. I cut back on the sugar to 3/4 cup and next time I will add 1 teaspoon vanilla because I like vanilla. We made it a week ago and he's already asking for it again. I guessed on the amount it made and the time to make as I didn't keep track of that.
